While there's some breathtaking scenery, the filming is so bad with shrill sound recording that even had it not been eyerollingly poorly written and hideously acted (including the three movie vets obviously desperate for work, or possibly just enjoying a paid vacation to an exotic shooting location), it still would have been highly unwatchable. What Edmund Purdom, Stuart Whitman and Woody Strode saw in this is a big mystery so they must have been enticed by the trip, unless they only had to venture in an overstuffed studio.
The story focuses on the search for gold left behind by Japanese soldiers in the Philippines during the war, chased out by cannibals. It's obvious that they found the portliest men possible to play the flesh eaters as the sight of them in loin cloths is completely unappealing. Hideously stereotypical Asian accents sound like something out of a badly dubbed martial arts film. Only a few exciting action sequences including the crossing of a rickety rope bridge. This isn't even worth seeing for camp elements.
